Sunday, November 17, 2024 - Former President Uhuru Kenyatta has heaped praise on his friend Rev. Peter Kimani, who has been installed as the new bishop of Embu Diocese.
Speaking during the installation
of Bishop Kimani in Embu yesterday, Uhuru described the new bishop as a
responsible leader, humble, soft-spoken, and kind.
"I want to assure the
people of Embu, you have won yourself a very responsible leader, very humble and
soft-spoken, the former president said.
While congratulating him, Uhuru expressed his fear of being left lonely as his long-time friend Bishop
Kimani has landed the top job as a priest.
"My friend, my Lord Bishop,
I know they have welcomed you here, but now I have lost a friend. I will remain
lonely. I will no longer have a friend to laugh with. Now I will only be
looking at him from afar," the former President jokingly said.
He revealed that his friendship
with Bishop Kimani brewed from a long time ago and now, although the two will
remain friends, Uhuru will no longer be free to joke around with him.
"Now I fear him, he is now
a boss, he can block my prayers from above," Uhuru lamented.
Uhuru requested the new bishop
to welcome them after he had settled in his new post so that they could join
Embu residents to develop the Catholic Church.
